## Documentation Files
### docs/GETTING_STARTED.md
```markdown
# Getting Started with Prompt Caching Demos
This guide will help you get up and running with the prompt caching demos.
## Prerequisites
- **For TypeScript**: Node.js 18 or higher
- **For Python**: Python 3.9 or higher
- **Anthropic API Key**: Get one from [console.anthropic.com](https://console.anthropic.com)
## Installation
### TypeScript Setup
1. Navigate to the TypeScript directory:
```bash
cd typescript
- Install dependencies:
npm install- Create environment file:
cp .env.example .env- Add your API key to
.env:
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-...- Run the simulator:
npm run simulate- Navigate to the Python directory:
cd python- Create a virtual environment (recommended):
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate- Install dependencies:
pip install -r requirements.txt- Create environment file:
cp .env.example .env- Add your API key to
.env:
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-...- Run the simulator:
python src/cache_simulator.pyThe cache simulator shows you how caching affects costs and performance without making real API calls.
This simulates asking multiple questions about the same document:
TypeScript:
npm run simulatePython:
python src/cache_simulator.pyYou'll see output like:
Request | Cache Status | Tokens Processed | Cost | Response Time
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 | 📝 Write | 18700 | $0.0703 | 3000ms
2 | ✅ Hit | 100 | $0.0062 | 450ms
3 | ✅ Hit | 100 | $0.0062 | 450ms
...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total Cost: $0.1234
Cache Hit Rate: 90.0%
Savings: $0.4567 (78.7%)
The live demo makes real API calls to show actual cache behavior.
Python only:
python src/live_demo.pyThis will:
- Make 5 requests with the same document
- Show cache creation on first request
- Show cache hits on subsequent requests
- Display actual usage statistics
- Print sample responses
- 📝 Write: First request, creating cache
- ✅ Hit: Cache was used successfully
- ❌ Miss: Cache expired or content changed
- input_tokens: Fresh tokens processed
- cache_creation_input_tokens: Tokens written to cache
- cache_read_input_tokens: Tokens read from cache
- output_tokens: Response length
Costs are based on Claude 3.5 Sonnet pricing:
- Input: $3.00 per 1M tokens
- Cache Write: $3.75 per 1M tokens (+25%)
- Cache Read: $0.30 per 1M tokens (-90%)
- Output: $15.00 per 1M tokens
- Try the Cost Calculator:
npm run cost-calculator(TypeScript) - Explore Examples: Check the
examples/directory - Run Framework Demos: Try Next.js or FastAPI examples
- Read Advanced Patterns: See Advanced Patterns Guide
Make sure you've created .env and added your ANTHROPIC_API_KEY.
Run npm install (TypeScript) or pip install -r requirements.txt (Python).
Check that:
- Content is >1024 tokens
- Using longhand format with
cache_control - Content is identical between requests
See Troubleshooting Guide for more help.
### docs/COST_CALCULATOR.md
```markdown
# Cost Calculator Guide
The interactive cost calculator helps you estimate savings for your specific use case.
## Running the Calculator
**TypeScript:**
```bash
cd typescript
npm run cost-calculator
Python:
cd python
python src/cost_calculator.pyYou'll be prompted for:
- System prompt tokens: Size of your system instructions
- Tool definition tokens: Size of your tool schemas
- Document tokens: Size of documents you're analyzing
- Question tokens: Average size of user questions
- Response tokens: Average response length
- Requests per day: How many API calls you make daily
- Days per month: Working days (typically 22-30)
Inputs:
- System prompt: 2,000 tokens
- Tools: 1,700 tokens
- Document: 15,000 tokens
- Question: 100 tokens
- Response: 500 tokens
- Requests: 200/day
- Days: 22/month
Output:

PROMPT CACHING COST ANALYSIS - Claude 3.5 Sonnet
==============================================================
📊 SCENARIO:
System prompt: 2,000 tokens
Tools: 1,700 tokens
Document: 15,000 tokens
Question: 100 tokens
Response: 500 tokens
Requests: 200/hour × 8 hours × 22 days
💰 WITHOUT CACHING:
Per request: $0.0565
Monthly: $248.60
Annual: $2,983.20
✨ WITH CACHING:
Monthly: $35.60
Annual: $427.20
💵 SAVINGS:
Monthly: $213.00 (85.7%)
Annual: $2,556.00
Without Caching:
- Every request processes all 18,800 tokens as input
- Cost = (18,800 / 1M × $3.00) + (500 / 1M × $15.00)
With Caching:
- First request per hour: Cache write (18,700 tokens @ $3.75/1M)
- Subsequent requests: Cache read (18,700 tokens @ $0.30/1M)
- Only question (100 tokens) processed as fresh input
The calculator assumes:
- 1 cache write per hour (when cache expires)
- All other requests within that hour are cache hits
- 95%+ hit rate for typical usage patterns
Caching provides maximum benefit when:
- Large cached content: >10,000 tokens
- High request frequency: >10 requests/hour
- Consistent content: Same document/tools across requests
- Short questions: Variable part is small
By default, the calculator assumes cache refreshes every hour. To model different patterns:
More frequent refresh (every 30 minutes):
- Double the cache write requests
- Slightly lower savings
Less frequent refresh (cache warming):
- Fewer cache writes
- Higher savings
To calculate for other models, adjust pricing:
Claude 3.5 Haiku:
- Input: $0.80/1M
- Cache Write: $1.00/1M
- Cache Read: $0.08/1M
- Output: $4.00/1M
Claude 3 Opus:
- Input: $15.00/1M
- Cache Write: $18.75/1M
- Cache Read: $1.50/1M
- Output: $75.00/1M
Profile:
- System: 3,000 tokens (support guidelines)
- Tools: 2,500 tokens (ticket system, KB search)
- Document: 0 tokens
- Question: 150 tokens
- Response: 300 tokens
- Volume: 1,000 requests/day
Savings: ~$180/month (82%)
Profile:
- System: 6,000 tokens (coding standards)
- Tools: 1,500 tokens
- Document: 8,000 tokens (codebase)
- Question: 200 tokens
- Response: 800 tokens
- Volume: 50 requests/day
Savings: ~$45/month (78%)
Profile:
- System: 1,000 tokens
- Tools: 0 tokens
- Document: 25,000 tokens (paper)
- Question: 80 tokens
- Response: 400 tokens
- Volume: 100 requests/day
Savings: ~$95/month (88%)
- Measure actual token counts: Use the API to see real usage
- Account for peak hours: Higher request rates = better savings
- Consider cache expiry: If requests are >1 hour apart, savings decrease
- Factor in growth: As volume increases, savings scale linearly
- Run the calculator with your actual numbers
- Compare against your current API costs
- Try the live demo to verify real-world behavior
- Implement caching in a test environment first
